You'd have essentially the same cartridge again. Would have cost less that the AT cart.

That was one of the possibilities I had envisaged and I may yet do it, but I still have nagging doubts as to whether retipped carts are brought back to original or to something different. When I realized that the Kontra had a Fritz Geiger stylus I sent an inquiry to Garrott Brothers, since I read they offered that type of stylus, and they suggested that I go for the Ortofon offer. The delays in getting the work done also were a factor. So either the AT becomes the cart on my main turntable or else it will be an upgrade on my second turntable.
One thing is certain, being retired, I don’t think that a new Ortofon Cadenza is going to be a possibility in the future so, once I am sure the Kontra’s stylus is done, I will likely get it retipped and I think that there is unanimity as to the quality of the work done by Soundsmith.
Cheers!
Fritz Geiger styli really aren't all that special in the great scheme of things.
I don't know Fred, they have all these facets!
